The Valentine Branson in the 1830 census this morning was between 40-49 years of age. At the time Worth (1861) and Gentry (1845) and Osage (1841) had not formed. Because of the age, I would assume that this was Valentine born 1785, son of Jarret. In his household, there is a female also 40-49 years of age. I wonder if this isn't Susannah East. A year later he married Sarah Smith Richmond. If anyone has access to 1830 death records, I'd love to know if a Susannah Branson died in 1830/31. In the census were a male 10-14 years of age, a female 5-10, and 2 females 15-19. I know the female 5-10 must have been Irene born January 03, 1823 in Nashville, Davidson County, Tennessee. I didn't know Valentine had another son and 2 daughters. I'd love to know who these other children were! In 1810 he was probably in Patrick County, Virginia. In 1815, Valentine was in Bledsoe County, Tennessee. And we know he was in Davidson in 1823 because of Irene's birth. I'm trying to find him in 1820. Although Bledsoe was formed in 1807 and ancestry.com says their 1820 census are complete, there is no census there yet for Bledsoe. If you have any girls born 1811-1815 or a boy born 1816-1820 that you can't figure out the parents for, I'd love to hear from you. Sharon
